The Return -- Celtics @ Jazz 11/9/2019 7:30 pm MST ESPN

Dante was bad. He was tentative and doesn’t act like he belongs. Dante needs to fix himself.

This was his first game all season long where he looked like complete garbage and he rightfully got pulled early in the 1st, but it was ******** that he didn't get to see the floor again when Rubio has had equally bad 2 minute stretches throughout the season and gets to play through it. It's also ******** that when Exum plays well while Rubio is playing ****, Rubio still manages to play more minutes than him.

It's a clear double standard and I'm starting to wonder if the Jazz are planning to move on from Dante at the trade deadline if Neto can play well and stay healthy.
 
My only fear is that his shooting is unsustainable. But he has been stupendous
Its totally sustainable. As good as it seems he has been playing he actually hasn't been shooting THAT good this year. Pretty mediocre really. 46% from the field and 35% from three. That should be sustainable.

He is getting a helluva lot of open looks - which prob makes it sustainable.
Some of his one-two dribble pull-ups have been ok too.
 
BTW Celtics got away with a goal tend at 2:46 left in the game on Crowder's lay up. Surprised no one has mentioned that.

It was blatant too... the site wasn’t working for me or I would have mentioned... I blame you.


But then ESPN shows no replay or mentions it. Which is one of the reasons I hate espn games.
 
I think that Favors actually saved the night from becoming a semi-meltdown. Those 3 tip-in shots he made down the stretch were so crucial in staving off the Boston run. Also, Ricky with the clutch 3 in the last few minutes as well to keep the lead up was amazing. A lot of great moments in this game, too many to list, I think my overall favorite other than the Jazz winning of course would just be the all around play of Ingles in conjunction with his trash talking.

Jaes petty game was fantastic. Walking through they huddle like move bitch get out the way... then acting like I’m just walking here. Everyday I like Jae more and more.
 
I love that the media basically gives Boston a finals spot and anoints Brad Stevens the smartest man in the world only to have their super talented team suck on offense. Maybe he is good at Xs and Os but it sure seems like his team is selfish on offense... it’s so much iso basic stuff. Either the plan sucks or they haven’t bought in.
 
I understand that Kyrie wasn’t there. But it wasn’t like they got nothing out of his reserves. Rozier had a season high and Smart, who’s normally a 20 percent 3 point shooter, went Steph curry on us. So if Kyrie has played, I think it’s safe to say we wouldn’t have had those two going nuclear on us.

I think people forget how awful Kyrie is at defense. If Kyrie plays then that opens up more opportunities for us to score as he’s on the same level as Harden on defense.

Honestly, I’m not even sure if he improves them much. They’re a top team regardless of him playing. They might be better off with less talented guards who can stay healthy, defend, and pass the ball. To me, Lebron’s ex-sidekick isn’t someone id rely on.

They better hope nothing happens to Horford, because they got nothing behind him. And Morris should play a lot more than Hayward.
 
Guy, Exum played 3 minutes where he went 0-2, 1 turnover but also had a rebound and an assist. But he only played 3 minutes.

Watch the game. Rubio played one of his best games of the year and still looked as bad or worse than Exum last night during stretches.

Even with Kyrie out it is still a great win for the Jazz especially considering how poorly the Jazz have been playing. Hopefully they can turn a corner with this one.
 
* rest of the game!

I'm resigned to the fact Dante is done in Utah, Quin has just killed this kids confidence. Imagine who we might have if Quin was as patient with Dante as he has been with Rubio.
You Exum's homers are oblivious to the fact that he spend 4 years in NBA and still can't run half court offence. He is ok in run and gun fast paced game only. Teams like Boston who slows you down and make you run half court offense is a nightmare for Exum and thank goodness for Rubio last night who with his ****** shot is still 100X better playmaker than Exum is.

That was before the season. Raptors are running away with it in the East. Boston will be lucky to make to East finals over Bucks assuming they meet as nr.2 and 3 seeds.

I’m not sure about that. Stevens >>> Postseason Bud
 
We crushed them on the boards - and we had 8 offensive boards which makes a ton of difference. Favors had 4 of them.

They only had 8 turnovers and we had 16.

It was nice to see the old Joe back as well. Celtics didn't play badly but we played better.

Another game where we faced a team with their star missing as well.

Crowder was having fun with his former teammates. But it would have been fun to see him beat Morris up. Jae gives us what we lost with Booker - a guy with attitude who isn't afraid to enforce or stir the other team.

Also, Rudy will get his revenge against Jaylen Brown....
